After two vacations to Europe and some full-contact business travel in-between, I found my way back into the TravelCommons studios. I talk about these recent trips -- the awful timeliness of an American Airlines' regional jet partner, an incredible string of lost luggage, a meaningless baggage strip tease with Wow Air, and being surprised to still find some quirks when using ATMs and credit cards in Europe. And it wouldn't be a travel podcast if I didn't weigh in on the TSA's "line-mageddon" -- their meltdown at O'Hare.
